I know with the ReUse Library we have the ability to collapse and expand folders. However, we dont like how when you add something from the Reusa Library it comes into the navigator as a reuse object. So I am creating .pax files that can be added as pallets and makes it really easy to add components we use a lot of.

I was wondering if there is a way to add to the code in a pax file so that you can collapse a particular group of components. So if I go into the Locating Pins, there will be ROUND, DIAMOND & 6 WAY pins. Whichever one you click on, it will expand to the numerous different pins in that group.

This would just make it easier to organize. Right now the pallet for the pins will be 100+ pins in the pallet. If I break them up into pallets, it just adds to the numerous pallets they already use on the side tabs.

what's the problem with a object being "reusable" ?

arranging paxfiles into folders is above my head.
